Topic	Washington is forcing you to declare as rep or dem in order to vote
wolfy42 02/21/20 1:49:19 PM #27:	BlackScythe0 posted... Primaries are a party thing. As long as they don't prevent you from voting on any official elections there is nothing unconstitutional about it, different states have different rules. GRRRRR. I understand it's the way it is, and I just have to live with it, but it feels wrong to me. I am a US citizen. I have paid taxes my whole life, I should get a voice in who our elected officials are, and who is nominated for president of the US. I should not be shunted aside if I'm not willing to declare as a Dem or Rep until the final vote, only allowed to vote for the two people the parties decided should be my choice. But whatever, it's reality, I just need to deal with it. It was already reality (this hasn't really changed anything), it just was a slap in the face basically, forcing me to declare in order to have any say at all. --- Agatha "Your naked and they are nuns, it's not your eyes they're not looking at."
